Andre Schurrle is departing Chelsea after being sold to VL Wolfsburg on a four-and-a-half year deal.

Just moments after the deal for Juan Cuadrado became official, Schurrle's transfer was sealed with the Bundesliga side. Wolfsburg beat Bayern Munich 4-1 the other day and are building a team to challenge them for the title, which along with a nailed on spot in their XI, gives Schurrle plenty of motivation to make the move back to his home country. He had a few moments in the sun during his time at Stamford Bridge but now entering the prime age of his career, he can make more headlines as a regular at Wolfsburg. Feb 2 - 12:29 PM

Chelsea have completed the deal with Fiorentina for the purchase of Colombian international Juan Cuadrado for a fee of £27m.

It took a while for the deal to be confirmed but now Chelsea have the biggest signing for a Premier League club on deadline day so far, bringing in the coveted Cuadrado who impressed so much at last summer's World Cup where he helped get Colombia to the quarterfinals, amassing four assists during the tournament. Chelsea are still looking to ship out Andre Schurrle in a somewhat like-for-like swap as both players can play an advanced midfield position or as a central striker when called upon. How nailed on he will be for Jose Mourinho's side remains to be seen, but it would seem Willian stands to lose the most pitch time with this move. Clearly, Cuadrado has the stuff to be a force in fantasy but it would probably be wise to wait on his services until we see him in action. Of course if his introductory price is ridiculously low, then he may warrant a stash on your fantasy bench. Feb 2 - 12:20 PM

After protesting that any move might be happening, Wolfsburg appear to be on the verge of signing Andre Schurrle on a permanent deal.

With Juan Cuadrado reportedly about to finalize his move from Fiorentina to Chelsea, the Blues had to find a way to balance the financial books. Their answer appears to be the long-rumored sale of out-of-favor winger Andre Schurrle to Wolfsburg. The German club have been denying that a move would happen for days but kicker is reporting that the move is now imminent. Jan 29 - 3:39 PM

Jose Mourinho confirmed that Schurrle felt a little pain in his back today and that's the reason he missed out on the FA Cup match. Schurrle hasn't been able to crack Chelsea's rotation this season and his fantasy value is practically zero at the moment. There are rumors sending him back to Germany during the January transfer window, so you shouldn't hurry to add him in any fantasy league right now. If he somehow ends up on a different Premier League team, he should be added in fantasy immediately. Jan 24 - 3:12 PM
